The USA Railways

Travelling by Rail in the USA

Travelling by Rail in the USA

Though skeletal compared to other countries, the USA’s train network has 30 routes that serve 500 destinations across 46 states – plenty of opportunity for a railroad adventure! Traversing the country from east to west and north to south, there is no better way to see some spectacular scenery and catch a glimpse of Americana in the small, quirky towns that are well under the radar.

Most services are operated by Amtrak, whose trains offer comfortable seating and a dining car, plus dome cars on the most scenic routes. It is worth noting, however, that they share the tracks with colossal, mile long freight trains, that are usually given priority. You can also ride the rails on luxury trains, like the iconic Rocky Mountaineer. These trains offer the chance to see some of the USA’s most glorious landscapes from opulent carriage that have every comfort and convenience and delicious, freshly prepared food.
